    I need new tires for my accord. I'd like to try and get a higher
    performance (i.e. larger) tire than the 205/60/16's that the manual
    calls for.

    My question is: What kind of issues am I going to run into if I want
    to put....say....a 225/50/17 or 18 or similar tire on the car. Can it
    be done? Should it be done?

    Kind regards,
    Kip

    A very cool applet to play with is:

    - look to get around (NPI) the same rolling circumference as your OEM tires.
